My first tutorial! I had a few friends asking me to make one at one point or another after they saw a few of my colored pics and the colored pages of my comic. I've never made on before so I figured this to be an interesting challenge.
First tutorial by me ever; so go easy on me! DOWNLOAD and check it out - it's not too, too big
I just got stuck following the use of the lasso tool. When I lay down the background color, everything turns that color and I lost my drawing. I don't know how to use the lasso tool to select my drawing. I just got lost here because I've never colored with the channel thing (and I find it hard to get).
However, I still have trouble with the lasso tool. My drawing is big and I can't circle it all without activating the lasso. And, in case that I succeed, what do I do with the selected area? You painted your character in orange with the paint tool?
what swatches did you have up and what formula do you have for getting to a "lighter, warmer color"? (I'm a nub) also, since I couldn't see, what opacity and flow settings did you use as you highlighted the hair? Did you change the settings AT ALL in between hair highlights?
